The Witter Bynner House: Writers in ResidenceOctober 2015
“The D.H. Lawrence Room’s small library floor slopes downward just a bit, and rustic stairs of stone and wood bring you to various offhandedly conceived levels. Many of Bynner’s architectural touches are still intact, from Asian-inspired window grilles to curvy bancos and stone benches wreathed by flowery branches. Perks include filling breakfast options, stunning views, and pet-friendly rooms.”
